The road to less congestion in Starke may just be paved right past some residents' front doors. A US 301 bypass, first talked about last century, got the green light from many residents Thursday evening. The bypass is designed to improve the quality of life for many in Bradford county but it also will change the meaning of home sweet home for others. The change will mean some property owners could see a highway where their backyard currently is.

"There are special memories in each room. I just hate the thought of them coming in and taking away such a beautiful place.. it's just my home. It's my home," said Starke resident Martha Boyette.
